Our lessons

     After an initial session to assess a student, we will tailor lesson plans based on ability and the school or result they want to achieve.  

The lesson consists of both Maths and English teaching, 55 minutes per subject with a 10 minute break in between. There are two classes for different age groups, one for those aged between 4 and 7 years old (Reception to year 2) and the other for those aged between 7 to 11 (year 3 to year 6).  Each class consists of 4 children per tutor.
Both lessons are broken up into 3 segments.  

English lesson

• The first 15 minutes are spent completing a spelling test. 
• The second segment of the lesson consists of completing an  exam style comprehension activity, a creative writing exercise or verbal reasoning activity. 
• The last 10 minutes of the lesson is spent writing a mini book review on what the pupil has read during that week. 

Homework:  The students will be set a spelling list every week, of which they will have to find the meaning of 5 of the spellings. The students will also be encouraged to consistently read a book of their choice.  
Mathematics lesson

• The first 15 minutes will be spent completing a mental maths exercise. 
• The second segment will be spent completing a maths exercise or a non-verbal reasoning activity. 
• The last 10 minutes of the lesson, will be spent either completing word problems or a maths puzzles.

Homework: The students will be set homework according to the topic covered during the lesson.

 Tutors will aim to teach the students topics that coincide with their lessons at school, if they are attending school. Typical lessons will consist of the tutor and student going through various exam papers. The lessons will change according to the students educational needs.
